AFAIK, the Getting Started guide describes 5 ways to install servicemix
: 3 on windows (binary, source, developer's release) and two on unix
(binary or source).
You do not have to follow the steps for both binaries and sources, just
choose the one you want.
I you want to develop jbi components, you have two different ways :
* using the lightweight components that are shipped with ServiceMix :
these are configured with Spring, so you will have to have basic
understanding of spring syntax. These components are in
servicemix-components module.
* use JBI compliant components : just read the spec, and implement
your component. There is no need of other knowledges. However, we
provide basci functionalities in servicemix-common module and you can
take a look at the existing components : servicemix-jsr181,
servicemix-lwcontainer (service engine) or servicemix-http,
servicemix-jms (binding component).
What documentation are you refering to ?
Btw, if you are looking for some examples, you should download the
sources and look at the unit tests. They are full of working user cases for
all the existing components.

Hi I am new to the world of ServiceMix and I have few basic questions:
a) I have downloaded servicemix-2.0.2.zip and extracted it to
C:\servicemix. After setting the environment variables, I can see
ServiceMix running. But looking at the
http://servicemix.org/Getting+Started , it says also to - download
servicemix-2.0.2-src.zip and run Maven to compile the source code. Why
do I need to do that ??
b) I am from J2EE/Web Services background. What I want to do is build
components using JBI and deploy them on ServiceMix. Do I need to know
Spring, Maven, ActiveMQ to develop using ServiceMix.
c) The documentation for ServiceMix is really not helpful. The
examples show flow diagram but doesn't explain much about what Java
files/ Schema have been followed. Is there any useful place for
documentation. Even if you can share some of your own small working
examples, it would be of great help to start.
Regards,
John
